Securely grip and manoeuvre hot crucibles with these 33cm stainless steel laboratory tongs, essential for casting and smelting jewellery.

What it does

These tongs provide a stable hold on crucibles during high-temperature metalwork. The precisely formed circular jaws, crafted from solid steel rod, ensure a firm, secure grip on the crucible's rim, preventing slippage. The extended length keeps your hands a safe distance from intense heat, while the integrated heat-resistant handle grips minimise thermal transfer for comfortable, controlled operation throughout your casting process.

How to use it

  • Position jaws around the crucible rim.
  • Gently squeeze handles to secure grip.
  • Carefully lift and transfer heated crucible.

Who it's for

Designed for UK silversmiths, jewellers, and metal casters working with precious metals. These tongs replace unstable improvised methods and pair directly with your casting equipment, offering reliable control during melting and pouring stages, whether you're a seasoned professional or refining your casting skills.

Samuel ★★★★★

The longer 33 cm length keeps my hands well away from the heat while still giving great control. The heat-resistant grip stays comfortable even after several minutes holding a hot crucible.

Alexander ★★★★★

The curved tips grab the crucible securely even when my gloves are clumsy with heat, and the grip stays cool no matter how long I hold it. This tong set handles the daily abuse of my small casting bench without any flex or slippage.

Avery P. ★★★★★

The 33 cm length is perfect for keeping my hands well away from the flame while still getting a firm grip on the crucible. The heat-resistant grip stays cool even after several minutes of smelting, which makes the whole casting process feel a lot safer.
